Bitget launched Stock+, a feature that lets users buy real US stocks directly with USD Coin(USDC) and other digital assets, merging crypto and equity trading in one account.
Bitget announced the launch on Jun. 22, placing Stock+ within its Stocks 2.0 ecosystem, where users can move between digital assets and equities in one account. The model sidesteps local brokers and jurisdiction-specific approvals.
Unlike synthetic products or derivatives, Stock+ gives buyers ownership of the underlying shares, executed through regulated brokers RQD Clearing and Atomic Vaults Securities. Holders qualify for cash dividends and stock split adjustments, while trading hours track US pre-market, regular, and after-hours sessions. Fees start at 0.1%, with a 50% discount through Aug. 31, 2026.

Gracy Chen, Bitget's CEO, framed the feature as a move from access to ownership. "Access is important, but ownership matters too," she said, adding that real ownership of US-listed firms is how the company bridges financial markets.
The feature builds on a 2.0 upgrade Bitget unveiled in early Jun. 2026, which introduced Reality, a regulated RWA protocol, and tokenized stocks called rToken. Bitget has since listed more than 500 US stocks and ETFs. Those holdings include SpaceX, Tesla, and NVIDIA, with rToken assets under management above $50 million.
